'Compromise requires change' Government offers 'no change' to Brexit deal, says Labour
But she says if the Commons agrees a deal in time, the UK should be able to leave before European parliamentary elections on 23 May.
Sir Keir said:"We want the talks to continue and we've written in those terms to the government, but we do need change if we're going to compromise." Prisons Minister Rory Stewart told BBC Radio 4's PM programme that there were"tensions" but there was"quite a lot of life" left in the talks with Labour.
He said:"In truth the positions of the two parties are very, very close and where there's goodwill it should be possible to get this done and get it done relatively quickly."BBC political editor Laura Kuenssberg said:"The sense is that the government has only offered clarifications on what might be possible from the existing documents, rather than adjusting any of their actual proposals in the two documents.
She added that both sides agree the talks are not yet over, but there are no firm commitments for when further discussions might take place.
